Teaser A Mysterious visitor has come to the great house at Collinwood, looking for Cassandra Collins - but Cassandra has disappeared, and her whereabouts are unknown to everyone. Determined to find her and bring her back, the stranger has gone to the Old House on the Collins estate. There he has obtained information which leads him down into a room that holds a dark and terrible secret.


Synopsis

Nicholas raises Reverand Trask's spirit from the dead and questions him about Cassandra. Trask informs him of the exorcism, but dismisses Nicholas as a demon. Nicholas threatens him, but Trask overpowers him with a crucifix before disappearing.


Nicholas returns to Collinwood where he introduces himself to Carolyn as her new inlaw. Carolyn expresses her skepticism of Roger's marriage and predicts an anullment will soon take place. When Nicholas probes for more details, she refers him to Tony Peterson, who can provide all the answers.


Nicholas visits Tony at his apartment and hypnotizes him. Tony admits his love for Cassandra, but does not know her whereabouts. With Nicholas's help, Tony is able to provide a clue: a tree with a rope tied around it. Nicholas leaves him, satisfied.


Jeff Clark returns to Collinwood, and Vicki is delighted to see him. His three weeks in Portsmouth were a failure, he was unable to find any record of himself prior to his time with Dr. Lang. He concludes that his real name isn't Jeff, but is more frustrated than ever. Vicki assures him that they will find the truth soon, and in the meantime she is happy. They kiss passionately, but when Jeff steps into the hall, the ghost of Rev. Trask appears and threatens her. Jeff confronts Trask and calls him by name. This convinces Vicki that Jeff truly is Peter Bradford.
